An overview and the intuition of CNN

CNN consists of multiple layers of convolutions, polling and finally fully connected layers. This is much more efficient than pure feedforward networks we discussed in Chapter 2, Deep Feedforward Networks.

Single Conv Layer Computation

Let's first discuss what the conv layer computes intuitively. The Conv layer's parameters consist of a set of learnable filters (also called tensors). Each filter is small spatially (depth, width, and height), but extends through the full depth of the input volume (image). A filter on the...
